Confirming the news to Indian Express, Salman's father Salim Khan said, "While I don't know the exact details about when he left the sets, I do know that there were some threats". On Monday, a senior officer informed the Superstar that three men in Mumbai wanted to kill him when at the same time a group of vandals was creating ruckus near the location where Salman was shooting.

Reports also say that Salman has been asked to not go cycling in the city and share his whereabouts on social media to maintain a low profile.
